The Inquest Now The Dust Has Settled

Well for me he is raging at the wrong man. He should be raging at the team who didn't give him the right tools to do his job. Can't keep blaming the manager if you keep bring in players who aren't better than what you already have.

We spent what 7.2 million all season and had what 15 new players come into the squad and raised 13.3 million in departures of 31 players. Yes a good clear out and money brought in but how many of those signings were better than what we had? Not many.

I hope the big man has a word with Watson & Dawson like he did last summer. They will hopefully inform him, having seen the likes of Diakhaby, Semedo, Bong et al close up, how poor the recruitment was in Jan and how knackered the players have been as a result.

The January recruitment was so poor and many of us were underwhelmed at the time. That Bong played 50 minutes and hasn't been seen since would surely rank as one of worst signings in recent memory. Diakhaby - barely qualifies as a footballer! Da Costa - jury still out but 

On the hand recruitment last summer was good in my opinion. Yes the loan signings have not worked out but Sow, Samba, Ameobi, Ribeiro and Silva have all made good contributions. If we could get upgrades on these this summer then we would have a good squad with genuine competition.

But we have to accept that to strengthen we will need to sell one or two of our best players. But I can live with that if the investment made is good
